Also, I had a really bad experience with deals like this before. An SS Camaro with 41,000 miles, supposedly "mint" for the miles it has. I drove like an hour to get there, and upon my first glance I notice it was A PIECE OF ****! It had tons of scratchs, sounded like **** when I turned it on, had oil or something in the air lid ( wtf ). The interior had all kinds of damage. I was like WTF dude you said this **** was mint.
